This is more of a rant if anything, but I’m just fed up of having to baby every single person in this damn company who is all in on AI programming shit??? meanwhile I’m having to rewrite ship over and over and over and over because the AI sloppers don’t actually know what they’ve written, and now I’m needing to refactor shit from the ground up so at least someone understands it??? and the problem is if I bring this up in any reasonable grown up way so as “why the fuck have you rewritten my code and not tested it so this features I’ve worked hours on are now completely broken until I come back to check on them???” I would obviously be the problem here.

to make things worse, being neurodivergent at work means that you are cursed with constantly finding shit that makes life more difficult for everyone, not getting any of the praise for fixing it, and not being able to formulate why the fuck these people are being so disruptive to everyone else’s productivity in the first place. I just want to code shit, I don’t want to have the constantly relearn what someone else can’t be bothered to learn themselves, and then get told but I’m not doing enough to log what work I’m doing.

it’s like I’m doing basic IT support for these fuckers too, asking me basic shit like why is this thing not working and they’ve just clearly not clicked the big fucking link so they can read why it isn’t working so they’d understand it better. they just expect you to slop it onto their plate as if you’re the AI agent for them. that’s why this shit is so popular with people who don’t know a thing about programming: they get to have all of the credit for writing something but not have to admit that not only do they not know shit but they’re actually relying on other people to know the shit for them. pure entitlement complex.

and yeah, maybe I’m a bit of a purist who sees his work is a bit more of a craft rather than a disgusting episode of life to get through as quickly as possible. fine. but it gets to the point where I’m almost sick of seeing code and sick of writing it and dealing with it all because I have to constantly be exposed to stuff that doesn’t work because no one gives a shit. maybe that’s why I’m getting more into carpentry recently.
